“The recipe below is one I've played around with during many of my longer running workouts (2+ hours). The sweet potato and banana combo provide carbs without spiking insulin levels, so my energy levels stay steady long term! When I received my "Little Green Pouch," I could not believe how perfect of a container it was to carry my homemade fuel!”

When to introduce: 12+ months (check with your pediatrician)
